Construção da base de dados para o desenvolvimento de uma plataforma online de divulgação da qualidade das águas

Abstract

Today, there is currently a scenario of constant concern regarding the presence about the contaminants in water. One of the evidences to this constation, is the increasing number of publications and works that analyze and indicates the presence of different evidence of work in the water. Among the works in different scientific journals, dissertations, theses and websites of public agencies, there is a population that often does not have access to databases, is unaware of the diseases that are related to contaminants in water and neither does it know the current legislation. When examined the evolution of environmental management, it can be seen that all the improvement was achieved through information and mobilization of a large part of the population surrounding a problematic issue. With the purpose of promoting progress in water management, the present work aimed to create a set of spreadsheets containing data of water quality parameters (groundwater, surface waters and supply networks in Rio Grande do Sul) as well as their respective laws, these were organized for use on the creation of a digital platform dissemination platform. The methodology used was the research of water quality data and the current legislation in the State of RS, which were organized in Google Drive spreadsheets, followed by the search for partners to collaborate with the design and development of the dissemination platform. Were prepared 7 spreadsheets to facilitate the treatment and programming for the construction of the digital platform. The spreadsheets contain data of the quality of surfaces water, groundwaters and supply water, groundwater usage data, quality rating data of surface water and the parameters (Maximum Allowable Values) for the quality of water supply, surface and groundwater according to the current legislation in RS. Also, were made contact with public and private institutions to search for partners. In conclusion, the construction of spreadsheets with the information and parameters, and the current legislation helped in the creation of the first version of the dissemination platform, because these, facilitated the treatment and use of this data. However, it is necessary to seek contacts with more partners to improve, feed and constantly update the platform. Finally, it is expected that the website created will be a reference tool for consulting water quality, that shows the updated situation of the water quality and, thus, allows to act in the improvement of what is considered of higher category for a population.
